…And you will know us by the weird cartoon crossover

Since NU contains one of the largest concentrations of awkward demi-dweebs who think knowing what a Yoshi is makes them an uber-trendy nerd, bringing an awkward indie band coupled with a dorky Adult Swim cartoon band makes perfect sense. People wearing Threadless t-shirts, rejoice, Northwestern has wrangled up Austin rockers …And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead and fictious death-metal band Dethklok as part of an Adult Swim college tour. For you out of your weirdo late-night cartoon loop, Dethklok are the star band of the TV show Metalocalypse, which is kinda like Aqua Teen Hunger Force with funny metal sterotypes in place of talking food. Trail of Dead (much better shortened) kind of make sense too, as they create heavy, fast paced songs that, if turned up a little longer, could be perfect Dethklok fodder. So catch up on your Adult Swim (Venture Brothers are pretty good) and prepare for an awkward crossover!

  1. I’m sure plenty of students will show up if Dethklok advertises themselves as “That Band from Guitar Hero II!”
